Apparently some of the less pleasant elements of Dutch society learned to blow up ATMs and extract the cash, then the banks there learned to cope, and then they switched to ATMs across the border in Germany. Now the German banks too have learned to cope and the number of ATMs being blown up is receding again, with a 60-70% drop in the areas that formerly had the largest number of bombings.
(Rumour has it that German banks also offer shops better terms on card payments of late, I wonder whether that's connected to these bombings.)
